Arrrgh!  I can't believe I did something this stupid!  That's what I get for
aliasing ls to ls -F .  That's what was aggravating, log into a different
account and it works beautifully.

For penance I shall eat section 1 of the manual set, with an extra copy of
csh(1) thrown in for good measure.

Thanx for the help.
